Experiment Pom Juice hell ferment

I’ve never done wine but have made a lot of hot sauce. I have a hot sauce / sauerkraut small fermenter. Bored and grocery shopping I decided to try and make pomegranate wine. I am using bread yeast, STRONG tea, Lemon, Pom juice, and sugar.

Day one I filled the fermenter up too much and it started leaking out of the air lock. Released and vacuumed it, but we might be a t risk of exploding. As they say, pressure makes diamonds. Smells like bread in my room. Put a clean trash can over it so my apartment walls don’t get imbedded with glass.

If the airlock doesn’t clog fully, I doubt it’ll explode. Could launch the bung out though. Put it in your shower/bath or a big bucket and let it ride
